The Spirit of Music MAG
Lilting, coaxing, pleading, teasing
The witchery of Music leads me
To an enchanted world of magic and wonder
A merry, elfin tune, ever changing, here
One moment, gone the next
Peeking 'round a corner, singing
Out, “Catch me if you can!”
I reach out longingly, stretching my
Hands toward the elusive promise of
Music – almost capturing, but not
Quite, nearly grasping but never
Totally. Then, like the will-o-the-wisp
She is, Music suddenly
Turns – and captures me.

Thanks for your time - appreciate it! And I wasn't quite sure how the whole magazine thing worked - if everyone's poem was in it sooner or later...so I just wanted to see what my peers thought of it. Again, thanks!
I'm not sure why you need feedback, considering this was published in the magazine (although I have to say, it has the fewest comments of any published piece I've yet seen).
So, where I see hiccups: "witchery of music." Maybe add a period after "wonder." It's good!
